[Nhcoll-l] Designing a new fluid store

[Marden, Sarah]

OFFICIAL

Hello

Apologies if this has been asked before. I've been asked to write a proposal of what I would want from a new store for our collection of 4,000+ spirit preserved specimens in a UK regional museum. Our current facility is earmarked for demolition and was always a temporary solution so has never met our needs. We are talking about the design of a new building to incorporate a store and workspace.

I would appreciate any feedback about must-haves or lessons learnt from your fluid stores.

I would also love to know if anyone has thoughts about how a store could have public access?

Thanks
Sarah
